Invest Africa (www.InvestAfrica.com<\/a>)\u00a0today published the UK\u2013Mauritius Investor Sentiment Report 2026, funded by the UK Government through UK International Development. The report finds strong UK investor confidence in Mauritius, alongside a clear opportunity to improve how investment opportunities are communicated to investors.<\/p>\n Drawing on a structured survey of UK investors combined with in-depth interviews, the report offers one of the most detailed pictures to date of how UK capital views the Mauritian market.<\/p>\n Key findings include:<\/p>\n 81% of UK investors view Mauritius as an attractive gateway to Africa The pattern beneath the headline numbers is consistent: Mauritius is trusted, and its promotional efforts are well regarded. Investors with greater familiarity with the market tend to hold stronger conviction, suggesting the barrier to deeper engagement is informational rather than perceptual. The report sets out recommendations focused on making opportunity detail more accessible, structured and unambiguous.<\/p>\n Confidence also strengthens over time, rising from 60% in 2026 to 67% over a three to five year horizon. The near-term caution reflects a calibrated view: confidence in Mauritius\u2019 fundamentals, alongside caution about the global outlook.<\/p>\n UK investor confidence in Mauritius extends well beyond the established sectors. Fintech and digital infrastructure score 67%, the blue economy 62%, and infrastructure 55%, pointing to where the next wave of opportunity is building.<\/p>\n The report is available to download: https:\/\/apo-opa.co\/4wCRWZa<\/a><\/p>\n Chantel\u00e9 Carrington, Chief Executive Officer of Invest Africa, said:<\/p>\n \u00ab\u00a0What struck us most in these conversations was how consistent the trust in Mauritius is. UK investors are not asking whether Mauritius is a credible destination, they have already decided that it is. What they are asking for is clearer sight of where the opportunities are. That is a solvable problem, and it is a far better problem to have than a confidence one. This report is intended to give Mauritius a precise map of where to focus next.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n Mr. Sachin Mohabeer, Deputy CEO, Economic Development Board of Mauritius, said:<\/p>\n \u00ab\u00a0This report gives us something valuable: direct, unfiltered feedback from UK investors. The confidence UK investors have placed in Mauritius is a strong endorsement of the work done to build an open, well-governed and connected economy. It also gives us a clear signal on where to sharpen EDB\u2019s approach, particularly in how we communicate opportunities across our priority sectors.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n H.E Paul Brummell CMG, British High Commissioner to Mauritius:<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019d like to congratulate Invest Africa on this report of UK investor sentiment towards Mauritius, which I hope will be useful to the government and other stakeholders in Mauritius in developing its vision for the future. \u00a0We were delighted to support the work. What shines through the report are the strengths of the Mauritian offer: political stability, governance, a robust legal framework and a compelling Gateway to Africa positioning, while the report offers useful recommendations, particularly around execution, to ensure that Mauritius derives the benefits it deserves from these strengths. I\u2019m delighted that our two countries have signed an Enhanced Strategic Trade Partnership, providing a framework through which we can help to realise this potential\u00a0and\u00a0turn confidence into investment that delivers growth and jobs in both our countries.\u201d<\/p>\n Distributed by APO Group on behalf of Invest Africa.<\/p>\n \u200bMedia contact: Tel:\u00a0\u00a0 Invest Africa:\u00a0 The Economic Development Board (EDB):\u00a0
